Well, just because I'm in my teens and I still go to school
Don't think that I dream childish dreams, I'm nobody's fool
Don't bother me, that makes me wild
And please don't treat me like a child
It's often said that youngsters should be seen and not be heard
But I want you to realize that it's quite absurd
And don't want to be so meek and mild
So please don't treat me like a child
So please don't treat me like a child
Gonna be my own advisor, cause my mind's my own
Then I will be much the wiser, my own point of view has got to be known
The best years of my life I know are those when I'm young
And since I'm sure that this is the end of the world
So gonna have my fun
So if I feel like running wild
Well please don't treat me like a child
Gonna be my own advisor, cause my mind's my own
Then I will be much the wiser, my own point of view has got to be known
The best years of my life I know are those when I'm young
And since I'm sure that this is the end of the world
Gonna have my fun
So if I feel like running wild
Well please don't treat me like a child
Don't ever treat me like a child
